We met on April 20th, 2012 for the first time; and coincidentally, seven years later.. our wedding happens to fall on the same date. After we met, it was only a few short months until we reconnected. A few weeks later, we took a trip down to Myrtle Beach for a vacation where we decided to continue our relationship, despite the distance between us while Nathaniel was at school... From that day forward we were inseparable. After three years of long distance, one year living in Los Angeles together, and two years back home in New Jersey... We thought it was about time we get married!
When Nathaniel and I started our relationship, he was attending college at Rogers Williams University in Rhode Island. This is the place we grew as a couple, and individuals. We decided to plan a little getaway up to Rhode Island to revisit the place our relationship really began. We decided our first spot was going to be Jamestown; this was our special spot, that we would go whenever we had the chance. It was so cold when we go there, and I could not wait to go back to the car.. but he insisted we stay for a few more minutes! Next thing I know were standing there shivering, he put his arms around me, turned me to the view, held my hand and proceeded to tell me theres a reason for this spot, and why we are here this weekend. He gets down on one knee, and I couldn't say yes quick enough!
